The SEC's Porn Problem Now Gaining Mainstream Media Attention

The
NYT has picked up Gawker's investigation into SEC staffers'
obsession with porn sites...

Here's John Cook's original story below:

Over the past two years, more than a dozen Securities and
Exchange employees and contractors have tried to view pornography
on government computers at least 8,273 times. Here's what they
were looking at while the global financial system cratered.

Now we've obtained reports of 16 investigations into porn-surfing
by SEC employees and contractors (one of them is a woman!),
including one man who said his daily porn viewing at work was
limited to "no longer than an hour and a half a day." The man
told investigators that his porn habit grew out of looking at
photos of men in bathing suits, which is sometimes known as
"gateway porn":

It's unclear from the investigation report precisely what the man
did (or does) for the SEC, but it's clear from the context of an
interview transcript that he attended graduate school and works
in a professional capacity. Two video files found on his computer
were referred to the FBI because investigators suspected that the
men depicted having sex in them were underage:

Anyway, here's the full list of sites referenced in all the
investigations. Enjoy!
